h her whole heart, while she lays bare their little minds, and
expresses their foibles, their faults, their virtues, their inward
struggles, their conception of duty, and their instinctive knowledge of
the right and wrong of things. She knows their characters, she
understands their wants, and she desires to help them. The only sure
talisman against domestic trouble she evidently believes to be the
absolute trust of a child in its parents."
